Shot this with a 60mm macro lens. The background is wrinkled-up tin foil.

The transition from the flower to the background is continuous but the flower is still differentiated. I suspect an overall colour tint giving continuity across the image.

Beautiful shot, as for the background, I never would have suspected tin-foil.

I did give it a slight amount of tint, wasn't needed but something I preferred.

Thanks Linda and Frank. I wish I could say I came up with the tin-foil on my own but to be truthful I saw someone else use the tin-foil first as a background during a macro shot.

I think it's wonderful to be inspired by other people's ideas, tips and results. No shame in not being the first to think of it

This is beautiful. I love the "white on white" range, and that touch of green is striking!

I like your image, especially the softness. Thanks for passing along the tin foil idea.

Beautiful control of the whites in the flower. Love the background and the flower.
